Kyanite - The Big, Blue Easy

Mercury Retrograde in Pisces has made some of us fretful, to say the least. Okay, I’ll admit it. I’ve been under my bed for two days. If you’ve found yourself worn out from smudging and cleansing your space, take heart. You’re not alone. WhiIe it’s important to remember to go with the flow at this particular time, there are still some things you can do to help yourself and your environment. One of the biggest metaphysical bangs for the buck out there is an incredible polymorph stone called Kyanite.

Kyanite derives its name from the Greek word, ‘kyanos,’ meaning blue. Good kyanite crystals have a color and clarity similar to a Ceylon Sapphire - a deep, rich blue that draws you into the stone itself. Kyanite in its crystal form is found in Brazil, Kenya and the European Alps. This gem stone carries a high vibration and is capable of automatically aligning all the chakras without any conscious effort on your part. Kyanite, like Ametrine, cannot hold a negative charge and therefore never requires clearing (One of my favorite attributes for a crystal). Anger, frustration and stress are greatly reduced by wearing Kyanite on your body.

If you wish to improve your communication skills then Kyanite is the crystal for you. This blue gem works with your throat chakra and assists you in both speaking effectively and in being clearly understood. It also induces tranquility and enhances psychic awareness. Kyanite’s vibration aids creative visualization and promotes healing during dream states. It is said to be a stone of destiny. Under Kyanite’s influence, you open yourself to the possibilities of life and find your true calling.

Mercury Retrograde is Mercury Retrograde, just as bad days are bad days. However, it never hurts to have a few tools to use when the Universe grinds to a halt right on top of you. Kyanite can make going with the flow a lot easier.
